Add a center line in CT Vascular:

Even on the created curved MPR’s it is still possible to add a new center line in another vessel for further investigation.Select the “Two point Vessel Tracing” icon, marked in red on image 1. Mark the beginning and the end of the vessel (marked in green on image 1) and a new center line is created. Image 2 shows the result.

Semi-automatic center line adaptation in the active center line:

When the center line is not set as desired (see image 3), then use the “Edit Path and Contour” functionality (marked in red on image 3). Select the icon and then click in the enhanced vessel and syngo.via will automatically recalculate and adapt the center line. See image 4 for the results.
